183 Turrets change hands

Soon, the information brought by the middle-aged beggar from the sea was safely delivered to Yao Junsheng through the tea shop, and then passed through Yao Junsheng's hand to other rebel members of Hongmen who were not exposed.

When no one noticed, Yao Junsheng and other rebellious Hongmen members moved one after another according to the situation, often moving around in the Hongmen, and at the same time took the initiative to stand up to help Li Tianyang and share their worries, running around the Jilong Port defense line.

At the beginning, Li Tianyang took a fancy to Jilong Port, because it is a natural sheltered port, with a regional pattern in the shape of a bell mouth, and two high mountains on the left and one on the right are horns to surround Jilong Port in the middle, which is very safe.

The choice of Jilong Port as the external window, not afraid of outsiders coveting, is also because of such an easy to defend and difficult to attack terrain, on the high mountains on both sides of the horns, Li Tianyang They have spent a lot of money and heavy weapons to build two forts over the years, and the form of a radius of more than ten miles can be seen at a glance.

Yan Zheng and the others also attached great importance to these two forts guarding the gateway of Jilong Harbor, and they also knew that Hongmen was also good at using firearms, if it weren't for the fact that they had equipped a large number of artillery of the Hongmen fleet into their Eastern Expeditionary Fleet for the sake of the Eastern Expeditionary War, they would not have suppressed the Hongmen Fleet so easily in the naval battle a few days ago.

It is precisely because of the existence of these two condescending guards from the Jilong Harbor to the fort that the Yan Zheng Feilong Gang has always maintained a cautious attitude towards the Jilong Harbor and did not dare to get too close.

At the twenty-fifth hour of the twelfth lunar month, the time for Yan Zheng Feilong Gang to attack with Yao Junsheng and others arrived, and on the towering fort at the north end of Jilong Harbor, three windproof lamps were hung high, sending a signal to Yan Zheng and others overseas.

At the same time as hanging up the windproof lamp, Yan Zheng and Zheng, who had been paying attention to the movement of Hongmen Jilong Port, were shocked at the same time, and shouted in unison: "It's done!" ”

"Pass my order, and all the ships will attack!!" Zheng Zhilong was in high spirits and shouted excitedly.

Yan Siqi, who was more cautious about "............", wanted to persuade Zheng Zhilong to keep a motorized fleet, but considering that the gap between them was not very large, he finally gave up this idea.

Mao Shi is the most lax and most tired time in a person's menstrual period, the Hongmen team has been loose on the outside and tight on the inside these days, and now in the face of the attack of the Flying Dragon Gang in the early morning, the reaction is really slow, and it is not until the Flying Dragon Gang is close to the five miles of Jilong Harbor that the alarm bell on the southern battery is "Bell Bell Bell!" The earth roared.

Suddenly, chickens and dogs jumped in the chicken coop harbor, seafarers and sailors ran for their lives, and the Hongmen soldiers also walked to their respective posts, and the artillery on the batteries on the high mountains in the south was the first to emit anger, and a series of artillery facing the sea poured cannonballs towards the approaching Wyvern warship.

However, on the contrary, there is an eerie calm on the northern fort, which is supposed to have a higher terrain and a wider field of vision, and it should be easier to spot the invading Wyvern than the male fort, but until now it has not even sounded the alarm bell.

Just as Li Tianyang and the others began to have a bad premonition and wanted to send people to question the generals on the North Battery, the North Battery finally began to make its own voice, and the carefully crafted artillery on the Battery let out an angry roar, venting the blazing shells towards the target.

It's just that this target is not the Flying Dragon Gang warship that Li Tian raised as they thought it was, but the South Fort of the Chicken Coop Harbor that is far away from it.

Due to the distance, the shells exploded between the steep rocks around the South Battery, bringing up clumps of black dirt, broken branches, and gray gravel.

There is no need for people to question them anymore, I am afraid that at this time, even if Li Tianyang and them want to walk safely to the North Fort, it will definitely be impossible.

"Check, find out for me, who betrayed us!!" To make matters worse, Li Tianyang's whole face turned pale.

Hongmen itself is at a disadvantage in terms of armed forces, and now with the advantages of geography and defense, it is deadlocked with the Flying Dragon Gang, deterring the other party from acting rashly until the army of Hongmen Dongwei returns.

After all, Jilong Harbor is a trading port that Hongmen has built with great difficulty, and they are not willing to let this port fall into the shadow of war unless it is necessary.

The aftermath of a war, even if Hongmen wins the final victory, it is likely that it will take the next few years or more to rebuild the destroyed buildings, commerce, and trust!

“…… Unless it is to attack the North Battery, how can we know who has defected? Wu Jie was equally solemn and murderous, and he resented those who betrayed Hongmen more than Li Tianyang.

"This is not difficult, as long as you check who is not at work in Hongmen now, and which family members are missing, you can find clues." Following Li Tianyang's return from defeat, Dong Haoran and the others were still stationed in Jilong Harbor, waiting for the attack of the Flying Dragon Gang.

"Check!" Li Tianyang once again gave a stern order.

The investigation of the violent agency quickly took effect, and at least the news that reassured Li Tianyang and them was that the Hongmen defenders stationed in the North Fort did not defect, but were deceived by Yao Junsheng and others of the Hongmen Defense Force to open the city gate, and then they controlled the fort.

In this case, it can also explain why the artillery fire on the North Fort is so sparse and inaccurate, and because the other party has put the focus of attack on the South Battery, which is more threatening to the fleet of the Flying Dragon Gang, it has let go of the larger target and easier to destroy the Dujilong Harbor, so that Li Tianyang and them don't have to worry about the danger of the Jilong Harbor for the time being.

However, Li Tianyang and them can't be careless, at this time, since the Flying Dragon Gang has launched an offensive, and the North Fort has fallen into the hands of those rebellious capitals, it can pose a threat to the inside of Jilong Harbor at any time.

Therefore, when it was discovered that the Flying Dragons Gang had begun to launch an offensive and the alarm bell sounded, the Jilong Port Neighborhood Committee began to take action, and with the help of the defense forces and the Public Security Bureau, the people in Jilong Gang were evacuated in an orderly manner and guided them to a safe place to hide.

The battle soon began in the inland sea of the bell mouth of Jilong Harbor, and thanks to the wide enough sea area of this bell mouth, even if there were almost a hundred ships stuffed here at this time, it still did not look crowded.

The more than ten guns on the South Fort have not been idle from the beginning, and the results obtained are not bad, but compared to the huge fleet of the Wyvern Gang, this casualty is a drop in the ocean, and it cannot discourage its determination to continue to attack Hongmen.

Li Tianyang and them naturally couldn't let the Flying Dragon Gang pirates extend the war to the inland of Jilong Harbor, so at the beginning, they scattered all the warships that could be discharged in their hands, and blocked all the more than 70 warships of the Flying Dragon Gang in the inland sea of Jilong Harbor.
